no good not a good system can't get sound and video to sync up would not recommend it

I purchased this after owning a 5.1 component system for many years. I had it running though my old tv and I wasnt too impressed with the sound. Ive since hooked it up to a new tv through the arc hdmi port. For the noise and clarity I find it pretty reasonable. I probably should have bought the 5.1.2 system which has 2 satellite speakers aswell but really this sound bar does everything I want it to to a volume Im comfortable with. I would however like to be able to control bass mid and treble more like an existing amp but for all round limited cables etc not a bad buy

The soundbar can produce immensely loud and clear sound at low and high volumes and the subwoofer performance is just best in class for most of the other competition including some higher priced subwoofers. The Base is deep, clear and thunderous for a perfect movie projection. We use it in our living room with open plan living and the sound is really fulfilling.

I like the sound bar have it setup in my bedroom with a 55 tv sound is really good and bass is punchy! Could use treble control

With this sound system, the cinematic experience at home is phenomenal. You just need to connect it to your TV using an HDMI cable to enjoy pure sound quality enhanced by a powerful subwoofer, which creates the perfect audiovisual experience.

It might take up a bit of space, but the JBL Bar 5.1 Surround is an incredible bit of kit.

It might take up a lot of space on your TV unit, but the combination of a great speaker setup, a powerful subwoofer and JBL MultiBeam technology provide an exquisite experience.

JBL MultiBeam tech; 550W of power; AirPlay 2 and Chromecast support;

No Aux-in; Soundbar and subwoofer are huge; No Dolby Atmos support;

If a soundbar, a surround system and a few Bluetooth speakers were all somehow to be magically whisked together in a tech cauldron, the JBL Bar 5.1 would be the result. For your £700, you get a transforming soundbar.

Tidy soundbar setup; Powerful bass; 5.1 surround option; Wireless battery-powered rear speakers

Voice levels can be difficult; Quiet listening performance lacking

JBL's Bar 5.1 aims to bridge the gap between the soundbar norm and a multichannel setup, by the addition of wireless surround speakers that unclip from the main enclosure. The idea being that you can bring these out for movie night, and reattach them to the 'bar afterwards.
